Abstract: Integrating smart tags in healthcare, particularly relating to managing safe medications and electronic health records, reveals a substantial step forward for patient safety and medication management efficiency. Medication errors contribute to some of the most adverse consequences for patients. Implementing smart tags, such as RFID, QR codes and barcodes and wearable devices, the risk of errors can be minimized. Connecting smart tags to an electronic health record leads to access to real-time and accurate information to enhance trust that right medications are given to the right patient at the right time. The interaction between smart tags and electronic health records improves medication safety and optimizes work processes and increases patient adherence, and facilitates collaboration amongst and improving healthcare team communications. All to offer a more straightforward, trusted patient-centered delivery of health care.
